Does this sound like you?

  • Creating lasting healthy habits can be challenging.
  • Despite your best efforts, you’re failing to see significant health improvements.
  • It’s impossible to stick to diets and eating “good” foods.
  • Too many potential solutions to chronic problems are overwhelming and confusing.
  • Prescriptions treat the symptom, not the actual problem.
  • Traditional medical providers don’t listen or understand you.
  • Bad habits take over best intentions.

“The secret to change is to focus your energy not on fighting the old but on building the new.”
- Socrates

After struggling with my own chronic illness beginning at a young age, I know the importance of compassionate support and an in-depth understanding of how the food we eat can either work for - or against - our bodies.

I have nearly a decade of guiding self- improvers toward healing and restoration. After running several successful businesses, I pivoted to my passion - health and wellness.

CERTIFIED INTEGRATIVE NUTRITION & WELLNESS COACH

Your Holistic Health Coach
Melissa Baca

Melissa Diluzio

Hello, I’m Melissa Baca, As a Certified Integrative Nutrition & Wellness Coach, I have a passion to help those that feel stuck in our current system and don’t know where to turn for help. I suffered from asthma as a teen and young adult. The treatment I received growing up did not promote healing or health. Instead, it weakened my body and immune system and kept me dependent on treatments that just maintained the status quo. When I learned that the main cause for my asthma was inflammation, a great curiosity began within me. It led me to discover that many of the chronic illnesses we suffer from today can be reversed, improved or avoided all together, through simple changes in our diet and lifestyle. I began to feel empowered and found that I had choices. I no longer felt stuck.

My education along with my curiosity created options which lead me to a life free from asthma, prescription drugs, hospitalization and breathing treatments. The foundation of my approach starts with education. When we learn we have options, we can make different choices. One of my greatest joys is seeing my clients make new choices and create habits that promote health and watching their lives change.

I've also spoken at events like the: Annual Health Symposium, Christian Women Connection, Canta Mia Senior Community, Take off Pounds in Sun City West, Community Association Management on health in the workplace; Surprise, AZ and the Lions Club in Spokane, WA. I've also been published in Grand LifeStyles Magazine.

What people are saying

I saw a class about nutrition in our community that Melissa was giving. I met with Melissa and she is excellent. I have had health issues for years and I wanted to see if she could help. She helped me from the first day I met with her. I have always kept a diary to help me see patterns regarding allergies. She has a very simple form I filled out and it was amazing! It worked so well, was easier and I could see patterns so clearly using her form and it helped me figure out several issues. I love no longer feeling alone solving my health issues. I have always felt alone since doctors have never had the time or expertise I needed to help. Melissa does! She always has great ideas and is never offended or put off by my unconventional ideas. Her only concern is that I improve, and she gives every effort towards this. She is so positive, and she gets so excited as I improve, as excited as I do! She is simply amazing, and my health has improved a lot. It is so satisfying to feel part of a team that I love regarding my health. It helps me so much to have someone who cares to discuss ideas and concerns with. I am so glad I met her.
